Translated by Demetrios Vikelas
"Σαικσπήρου Δράματα, Ο Βασιλιάς Ληρ" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written in late 1605 or early 1606. Set in pre-Roman Britain, the play follows King Lear's fateful decision to divide his kingdom among his daughters based on their declarations of love. When his youngest daughter refuses to flatter him, Lear sets in motion a catastrophic chain of events involving betrayal, madness, and blindness. Known for its dark tone and complex poetry, the work explores themes of power, family, and human suffering.
